How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A silent-era swashbuckler where acrobatic action sequences and physical comedy drive a tale of undercover vengeance that softens when romance enters the scene. It's pure adventure spectacle, thrilling but never grim.
